> Simplify proxy server based access to external platforms like Google cloud

> Key: AIRFLOW-2759
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-2759
> Project: Apache Airflow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: hooks
> Reporter: Aishwarya Mohan
> Assignee: Aishwarya Mohan
> Priority: Major
> Labels: hooks, proxy
>
> Several companies adopt a Proxy Server based approach in order to provide an
> additional layer of security while communicating with external platforms to
> establish legitimacy of caller and calle. A potential use case would be
> writing logs from Airflow to a cloud storage platform like google cloud via
> an intermediary proxy server.
> In the current scenario the proxy details need to be hardcoded and passed to
> the HTTP client library(httplib2) in the GoogleCloudBaseHook class
> (gcp_api_base_hook.py). It would be convenient if the proxy details (for
> example, host and port) can be extracted from the airflow configuration file
> as opposed to hardcoding the details at hook level.
